Crawford County Iowa Bans RAGBRAI

This is just wrong on so many levels:

RAGBRAI has been banned from rolling through Crawford County.Stinging from a $350,000 settlement paid to the widow of a RAGBRAI rider who died in Crawford County, the board of supervisors on Tuesday passed a resolution that prohibits the bicycle ride or "any event of like kind and nature."Crawford County officials say their roads are not designed for bicycle travel, so they are too risky for use by participants in the Register's Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa.
